Title:
  missing git filter-repo

Status in git package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  when using git filter-branch, it prints a strong warning:

  WARNING: git-filter-branch has a glut of gotchas generating mangled history
           rewrites.  Hit Ctrl-C before proceeding to abort, then use an
           alternative filtering tool such as 'git filter-repo'
           (https://github.com/newren/git-filter-repo/) instead.  See the
           filter-branch manual page for more details; to squelch this warning,
           set FILTER_BRANCH_SQUELCH_WARNING=1.

  
  but Ubuntu does not come wit filter-repo .
